#63424: lua51-luarocks @3.7.0_1: Lua runtime panics

     Type:  defect           |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal           |  Milestone:
Component:  ports            |    Version:  2.7.1
 Keywords:                   |       Port:  lua51-luarocks
-----------------------------+----------------------------
 The port installs correctly, but the script it installs causes the LuaJIT
 interpreter to panic. Any invocation causes:

 {{{
 PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (7)
 }}}

 I believe the 7 here is an error code and not a line number.

 My system is a "Mac mini (M1, 2020)" running macOS 11.3 (20E232).

 luarocks not working means none of the packages that MacPorts tries to
 install via luarocks will install either.

 lua52-luarocks and lua53-luarocks seem to be behaving themselves, but I
 was hoping to be able to use lua51-related tools since I've been
 experimenting with the LÖVE game framework which is stuck on 5.1 for now.
